"I Read this book when I was younger and it’s what made me love reading, the story was really interesting and there were some funny silly parts, I enjoyed this book so much that I went and read it when it was snowing (I fell asleep and the book got destroyed) This book will always be one of my favourites"
"Personally this book didn't catch me at all, it was too much of a children's story and the fact that I really didn't quite get where the hell they were almost all the time until they almost reached their destination didn't help at all (maybe having a map could've helped me a bit). By the title I expected that the dragon rider would be more heavily involved in the action scenes but sometimes the leadership fluctuated so much I didn't really know who was following who. Also, there is too much of the real world, almost leaving the dragon as the only magical thing and that is kind of sad. <br/>I still give it four stars because all of those are just personal impressions, the book itself is very well written and the pace is always kept well which are characteristics I always look for and like in every book. I believe many other people will enjoy it."
